Well it is Saturday after all and some of us get out the house and do a bike ride with friends during part of the day before putting the feet up to watch some Premier League matches. Nevertheless, as a follow-up to this….

Photo in the first link above was taken near the golden hour on the TR carrier west of the arrow.
here you go – a panoramic shot of the cast and crew on another day resulting in a personally signed (Tom likes a big, curved expressive C) thank you memento-

Penton, you spend a lot of time in the outdoors, on location, seeing the world outside your mansion.
You travel, went to Vancouver, Canada, ...cruise ship, beachcoming, building, strapping, driving, sleeping, rising, ...
You got to see superb flying jet planes, meet Tom, Navy Marines, pilots, Navy ships, professionals in the moving pictures industry, the latest technological camera advancements, raise a family, eat, walk by the beach, swim, ride your bike, and a zillion more outdoor activities. You see the real world outside your TV's screen, in real 3D, in real accurate colors and lights and darkness.
You are not living in a cell, small prison jail with a small black and white TV and couple books and a toilet couple feet from your bed.
You are a free passionate man of involvement in the active chain of the film industry.

We are more than humble by your dedicated sharing and all views.
It's people like you who motivates us to do great things for our communities.
And by the same token having an expanded knowledge on healthy living of all the good things we love in life...breathing the lovely air above the oceans, down the melting snow from the mountains, among the forests with the wildlife and trails leading to the world's rainbow edges. ...Walking, riding, exercising, breathing, moving, running, living.

I do.

I’m going to email that ^ spiel to my wife at her job so it’s documented and maybe she’ll think twice before she asks me to pull the weeds around her flowers when I’m tired from all our escapades…..and on the steep back bank no less.

P.S.
Since we’re doing the northwest, don’t forget Whistler – https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...a#post14982129

Give your wife a flower from the garden and put it in a vase with water in the kitchen, so that she can remember how much you love her.

This carrier scene was originally planned to be shot at sea, but an unexpected mechanical caused some filming to happen at dockside (markings covered so as not to reveal too much of the plot and ruin the movie experience for audiences) –



That meant there had to be quick thinking creative positioning and camerawork so as to hide the skyline across the bay –

Problem is, I already used the move for that and as a little penance after I forgot my duty to pick up a fresh baguette on Friday….

~ Bob, I’m surprised you didn’t ask me about the rooster on the last page. Already this morning my niece and nephew (who read this thread) both emailing me as to wuz up with that? Perhaps you were more fixated on the sunroom we have out back.
